Several factors influence the cost of renting a party bus in Santee, including the size and type of vehicle, the duration of the rental, the total distance traveled, and the time of year.

It’s always best to book your party bus as early as possible to ensure availability and get the best rate.

Spring and summer dates tend to fill up quickly due to weddings, graduations, and festival schedules, while fall weekends are popular for football games and Halloween parties. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have availability, but planning ahead gives you the widest selection of vehicles and the most flexibility with pick-up times.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. The remaining balance is due before the date of service.

If you need to make special arrangements, please discuss this with your representative when booking.

Parking rates at major venues can range from $30 to $100+ depending on the location and type of event. Please review your itinerary with your representative to identify any additional costs that may apply.
